According to The Daily Telegraph, over 100 spectators watching a race were injured in Brazil when a section of bleachers collapsed. (Bleachers is an American term used to describe the raised, tiered stands found in sports fields or at other spectator events) Around 500 spectators were observing at a drag race in the Brazilian city of Quatro Pontes when the structure gave way. Six people were immediately taken to the hospital as a result of injuries sustained in the incident, and two of those are still in critical condition.

Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident, though structural faults are believed to have been the cause. Below is the video of the collapse, but be warned, the images may be upsetting for some viewers.
